The Hungry Trout Resort.

Nestled in the Northern Adirondack Mountains, a mere mile from Whiteface Mountain, The Hungry Trout Resort offers a tranquil escape with direct access to the region’s most cherished outdoor experiences. Its 1500 feet of river frontage along the West Branch of the Ausable provides a serene backdrop, creating a quiet haven just a short drive from the lively bustle of Lake Placid. This full-service, year-round property is thoughtfully designed to be a hub for adventure, catering to a diverse array of interests from the angler to the hiker, the skier to the cyclist, throughout every season.

Guests here will find spacious, quiet, and clean accommodations, providing a comfortable base after a day spent exploring the vast wilderness. The resort distinguishes itself with two on-site dining options. The Hungry Trout Restaurant offers a refined experience, featuring gourmet dining in an inviting atmosphere, ideal for a special evening. For a more relaxed affair, the HT Tavern provides a casual pub setting, perfect for unwinding with a meal and drink. Both establishments offer indoor seating, and during warmer months, guests can enjoy their meals outdoors, taking in the mountain air.

Beyond comfort and cuisine, the resort’s prime location offers front-door access to an abundance of outdoor recreation. Just steps away, adventurers can explore the slopes of Whiteface Mountain, cast a line into the famed trout waters of the Ausable River, or embark on miles of hiking and mountain biking trails. The nearby "Flume" swimming holes invite a refreshing dip, while canoeing and birding opportunities abound. A defining feature of The Hungry Trout is its on-site Fly Shop, which not only equips guests with gear but also facilitates guided fly fishing experiences and upland game hunts across the Adirondacks, making it a true haven for sporting enthusiasts.

The Hungry Trout Resort crafts customizable adventure packages designed to cater to a wide spectrum of guests, whether their passion lies in fishing, hunting, skiing, biking, climbing, or hiking. This approach ensures that every visitor can tailor their stay to their specific desires, fostering an atmosphere of personalized exploration. The property operates year-round, welcoming guests in all seasons. Recognizing the importance of inclusivity, the resort also offers ADA Accessible accommodations, with portable ramps available upon request to ensure comfortable access to public areas, guestrooms, and dining facilities, reflecting a commitment to accommodating all travelers.
